Broken Litany

We dipped our knees on the ground just so you won't have to
So why is it that your hands remain unclean
You always seem to listen
You nod your head to agree
So why is it that you never know what I mean
You don't hide your lies very well
The longer you talk it makes it easy to tell
Who was the innocent and who told the lie
By exploiting our fears you watched the whole world go blind

Can someone remind God we still live here?
Cause they're burning my friends and I'm still living in fear
They call us sinners, maybe He left us behind
Or was I always screaming to an empty sky?
Can someone remind God we still live here?
Cause they're burning my friends and I'm still living in fear
They call us sinners, maybe He left us behind
Or was I always screaming to an empty sky?

Oh I don't see what you see
Gripping on to fiction doesn't interest me
I heard of all the things you've said
Quoting from the very books you never read
Oh I don't need what you need
On my back just isn't how I plan to bleed
Not going back, I heard your song
And I think you'll sing it better when I'm gone
Gone
Gone
I think you'll sing it better when I'm gone
Gone
Gone
I think you'll sing it better when I'm gone

Can someone remind God we still live here?
Cause they're burning my friends and I'm still living in fear
They call us sinners, maybe He left us behind
Or was I always screaming to an empty sky?
Just look at me and tell me what you see

Scars on my wrist only tell me memories
When I close my eyes, will they disappear?
When I learn to fly I am getting out of here
Just look at me and tell me what you see
Scars on my wrist only tell me memories
When I close my eyes, will they disappear?
When I learn to fly I am getting out of here
Just look at me
Just look at me
Just look at me
Oh just please tell me what you see
Why are you dancing with these skeletons tonight?
Me
Just look at me
Just look at me
Just look at me
Oh just please tell me what you see
Why are you dancing with these skeletons tonight?
